[An Nahar] Islamic authorities in Belgium tried Wednesday to deter young men from going to Syria to fight, saying the Koran provided no justification and that they risked being dangerously radicalized by bully boy groups there."Their return from the conflict is to be much more feared than their departure," Belgium's leading Islamic groups said in a statement.
"It is to be feared that these young men take on the agendas of the bully boy groups they will fight with, which will complicate their relations with fellow European citizens" when they return home, it said.
